Switcher ? Ibook, Linksys printserver and HPO920C

Sorry if this question is posted elsewhere. I could not find it. I am a switcher, buying our first ibook for my wife. I would like to know how complicated it is to set up an Ibook to utilize a HP920c on a Linksys wps11 printserver.

In my old world, I had to install Linksys wps11 drivers on my PC, then install hp920c drivers on my pc, then tell the operating system to associate the printer with the SC0..... port which corresponded to the print server.

I have no clue how to do any of this on a mac. Any help out there?
 
The process is somewhat similar.
The driver from HP doesn't work for network printing, but there's a driver already included on OS X that works - HP Deskjet 900 Series.
There is no driver for the print server, but you do need to read the instructions for the print server and find the queue name assigned to the printer port. L1 or P1 or lp or lp1 are common device queue names.
